Kartik
Aaryan
may
not
have
come
from
a
filmy
background,
but
that
did
not
stop
him
from
dreaming
about
being
in
films,
and
relentlessly
pursuing
it
until
it
became
a
reality.
Kartik
revealed
in
an
interview
that
it
was
while
watching
Shah
Rukh
Khan's
Baazigar
he
felt
like
he
had
to
be
on
the
other
side
of
the
screen.
Although
he
made
his
debut
with
Pyaar
Ka
Punchnama
in
2011,
his
life
as
a
struggling
actor
did
not
stop
there.
It
wasn't
until
Sonu
Ke
Titu
Ki
Sweety,
that
things
started
becoming
easy
for
him.
As
of
now,
Kartik
has
a
couple
of
100
crore
films
to
his
credit,
and
has
made
a
name
for
himself
in
the
industry.
Speaking
to
Humans
Of
Bombay,
Kartik
said,
"My
parents
were
in
the
medical
field
&
I
was
going
to
do
engineering.
But
in
9th
grade,
I
saw
Baazigar
&
I
knew
I
wanted
to
be
on
the
other
side
of
the
screen."
He
further
said
that
he
moved
to
Mumbai
under
the
pretext
of
studying
Engineering,
but
actually
moved
there
to
be
able
to
give
auditions.
When
he
got
his
big
break
through
Pyaar
Ka
Punchnama,
he
was
living
in
a
flat
with
a
group
of
12
other
boys.
Post
the
movie
there
still
weren't
enough
opportunities,
and
he
continued
living
there.
"After
Sonu
Ke
Titu
Ki
Sweety,
it
all
changed!
Life
has
come
full
circle
now-recently
when
I
was
in
Gwalior,
I
was
invited
to
my
school
as
chief
guest
&
kids
were
chanting
my
name!
It
was
surreal!" he
said.
Kartik
is
currently
busy
with
the
promotions
of
his
upcoming
film,
Pati
Patni
Aur
Woh,
in
which
he
will
star
alongside
Bhumi
Pednekar
and
Ananya
Panday.
Directed
by
Mudassar
Aziz,
the
film
is
a
remake
of
the
1978
film
of
the
same
name.
Pati
Patni
Aur
Woh
hits
theatres
on
December
6.
